Character name:Hobblekit | Hobblepaw | Hobblefoot

Nickname: Hobble

Character age: 25 moons

Gender: Tom

Clan/Tribe: WindClan

Rank: Medicine Cat

Personality: Hobblefoot is a lonely guy. His mother was considerably more protective of him than of her other kits (for reasons explained below) and didn't like him going outside the nursery too much for fear of him hurting himself. Partly because of a rebellion against helicopter parenting and partly because of his own nature, Hobble is inherently curious and always expressed a strong desire to learn more about the world around him while growing up.

Since a lot of the other young cats in the Clan tended to avoid Hobble because he only has three legs, he unfortunately developed a very low self-esteem at a relatively young age, something that developed into depression when he got older. This self-esteem issue makes Hobblefoot very unsure of himself, giving him a rather cautious way of going about things as well as a habit of thinking through things before he says or does them.

Hobblefoot grew up questioning StarClan. Why was he born incomplete? Why did the other cats not like him? Why did they treat him differently? It was only natural that he would become the medicine cat; it's really the only thing he can do for the Clan. Although he has enough fighting skill to be able to defend himself, he can't do much else. He can't even hunt for himself, something that regularly stirs up feelings of worthlessness.

Apart from the depression, Hobblefoot has developed a rather no-nonsense, stubborn, moody personality and regularly makes sarcastic quips at patients.

Appearance: Hobblefoot is a short-haired dark gray cat with auburn markings around his eyes, down his sides and back, and up his tail. He has a few scattered spots of white, mostly on some of his toes. The marks on his face contrast his green eyes, both of which are flecked with gold. He has a lean body shape, long legs, and long tail, all typical characteristics of WindClan cats.

Hobblefoot was born without a left hind leg; the peculiar hopping gait he has acquired to compensate for his disability prompted his namesake.
